Hello. Ive been hearing loud “bong” sounds from under my car, off and on, for about 6 months now. They occur when i drive in dips, over bumps, and on the occasional turn. Cold weather seems to make it worse. Sometimes the sound comes from the front, but i hear them mostly in the back. I was wondering if this could be a sign of worn shocks and/or struts. If not what could it be?
Bong!!

Noises are quite dificult to diagnose without actually being able to hear them and test different things. That in mind, this is an excellent article on how to do just that: http://freeautomechanic.com/auto-repair.html
Other than that you are just asking me to guess, so my best guess would be either bad shocks/struts or mounts. Or it could be bad sway bar links or bushings.
